Week 7 vs. Cincinnati Bengals
Rashod Bateman only had 29 yards in his debut performance, but he was tied for the team-high with six targets and caught four balls in a lopsided victory over the Chargers. Bateman logged 65% of the snaps, second to only Marquise Brown, a number that should only increase in more neutral game script. The Ravens dominated this game with defense and only threw the ball 27 times.
This week, keep an eye on Bateman against a surprisingly not-terrible Bengals defense that ranks 16th in aFPA to opposing wide receivers this season. It’s probably still too early to plug him into lineups in most leagues, but if you need a desperation starter during this crazy bye week, the targets are interesting enough to make him worth a gamble in a game that should feature some fireworks.
